Problems solved by technology

While most people appreciate the importance of physical fitness, many have difficulty finding the motivation required to maintain a regular exercise program.
Some people find it particularly difficult to maintain an exercise regimen that involves continuously repetitive motions, such as running, walking and bicycling.
Often, this clear separation between athletic activity and other activities reduces the amount of motivation that an individual might have toward exercising.
Further, athletic activity services and systems directed toward encouraging individuals to engage in athletic activities might also be too focused on one or more particular activities while an individual's interest are ignored.
This may further decrease a user's interest in participating in athletic activities or using the athletic activity services and systems.
